There's the well-known Afterburner app that allows you to overclock your palm-based OS handheld. You can OC your handheld's processor up to 300% using this utility. The only drawback to that is that it tears through your battery reeeeeeeal fast.

Not that I have ever tried it... what kind of hardware geek would try that? :rolleyes:

brain, you can oc your ppc, but some, if not all, of the time it requires you to open the unit up and physically mod internal components. i forgot which ppc you have, but you can do a search on google for overclock and your ppc model

oh yeah, i have a peg-s300 with the internal li-ion battery which is not the best rechargable out there. its been oc'd pretty much since i got it and i have never had any problems at all with battery life. it did slightly affect the battery life in my old m100.
